Islam Quote by J.K. Sheindlin
““To accommodate the Hadith, it’s not uncommon for western cities with Muslim enclaves to place threatening make-shift signs warning non-Muslim visitors not to walk dogs anywhere near the area, lest they be violently attacked.37 The same can be said for Police ‘sniffer’ dogs where western Muslims have now begun to complain to authorities that the animal offends their sensibilities.38 Of course, pandering to the cult in fear of being labelled as ‘Islamophobic’ and intolerant, Police services in the United Kingdom may be reduced to attaching custom-made ‘bootees’ to their sniffer dogs when searching Mosques and Muslims’ homes.39 The irony is that despite these animals protecting all citizens’ security - including Muslims - western governments are quick to placate the organization by desperately falling over each other to expedite ‘tolerance’ of an intolerant ideology. Because””
